Bára Kopecká / Czech Republic / 2013 / 75 min.

synopsis

This intimate portrait of uncompromising architect David Kopecký – who died of cancer – goes straight to the bone, mixing the extreme personality of a maximalist visionary with the no less intense vision of the director... Kopecký's wife. Archival footage, interviews with friends, and the unbridle energy of a person who lived in a world consisting of light and matter.

"A large village shop was being auctioned off, and David was sick with the desire to acquire it... Me and the children's room would be in the meat section, while he would take up everything from the bread aisle to the dairy products."
